Mercedes-Benz E-Class Reliability through March 31, 2013
General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Apr | 2010 | 145000 | First odometer entry | |
| Feb | 2011 | 160000 | 1923 | Replaced springs that were getting worn down. First time springs replaced and car is 11 years old, so I'm quite happy with how long they lasted me. :) When in for new springs, they found that the left-front spring perch was severely rusted and about to fail, so they had to replace that too. This really increased the bill, so I'm quite unhappy that this wasn't properly noticed previously. |
| Jul | 2012 | 174700 | 163 | Rear power window regulator broke, so I had to replace it. Took it to the dealer to get confirmation on what was broken, and then fixed it myself. |
| Oct | 2012 | 178000 | 813 | Had started having a real bad squeaking noise from the right rear of the vehicle. Ended up having to replace both rear shocks. Squeaking noise was still occurring, so I took the car back and had it diagnosed/repaired again. Dealer gave me a good discount on this trip, since they hadn't completely fixed the problem the first time. They also fixed my water pump. |
| Jan | 2013 | 181000 | 224 | Dealer found that an antifreeze leak was due to a loose radiator hose. Check engine light was due to a crankcase valve that needed to be replaced. |
